Sightseeing

This is a 2 for one adventure for many fitness levels! Visit the historic railroad tunnel started before the Civil War and also visit this beautiful waterfall. It can can be an easy walk for the tunnel and also to the viewing area of the falls. Many surefooted families extend the fun by hiking the trail down to the bottom of the falls for more adventurous fun.

You must go to the end of the road and travel on a dirt road to get there, but once you do, there are three sets of falls for your enjoyment in this hike. This is great paired with a visit to Brasstown Creek Gathering Place BBQ if you time it right! https://www.hdcarolina.com/episode/brasstown-falls

Food scene

Head toward the mountains for a unique BBQ dining experience in a beautiful setting along a gentle mountain stream. It is about a 50 minute drive from our place, but well worth the food and atmosphere on a nice evening. Dining is outside and socially distanced. Must have cash or check... no credit cards. Pair with an easy (Bull Sluice) or strenuous (Brasstown Creek) waterfall hike for even more fun!

Great food that has been pit roasted. We like to get it for takeout because it is so close, but they do also have a dine in option. Get there early because they often post a sign and close early when the food is gone!

Awesome Pennsylvania Dutch Mennonite food buffet or menu options! We first visited Dienners in Lancaster, PA and this is a family branch located in Seneca! If you go away hungry it is your own fault! Eric says to try the shoofly pie... Hours are limited to mostly breakfast and lunch with one evening on Thursdays.

Another local favorite where they used to bring the food to you on roller skates. Now you dine in, but the servers are just as busy and fast paced in this busy establishment. History is represented in the mural detailing days gone by.
